Introduction

Key Digital®KD-EX18G is a UHDoTP HDMI extender Tx + Rx set with 4K/UHD resolution and

bandwidth support up to 18Gbps and HDCP2.2 compliancy. KD-EX18G extends video resolutions

up to 4096x2160 at 60hz with 4:4:4 chroma sub-sampling over a single CAT5e/6 cable up to 115ft

(35m). 1080p signals are extended up to 164ft (50m). In addition to HDMI video and audio signals,

KD-EX18G carries IR for controlling remotely located equipment. KD-EX18G features 4K to 1080p

down convert, EDID handshake control, and hot plug detection integration tools, as well as an HDMI

pass-thru port for connecting to AV Surround Receivers or local monitors.

Quick Setup Guide

CONNECT:

Begin with the Tx and Rx units and all input/output devices turned off with power

cables removed.

1. Connect your HDMI source to the input port of the Tx unit

2. Connect your HDMI display to the output port of the Rx unit

3. Connect a CAT5e/6 cable between Tx and Rx unit. Use 568-B termination.

4. Connect IR emitter from Tx or Rx unit to the IR receptor of the device you wish to control.

5. Mount IR Sensor in a location that can easily collect line of sight IR signals from remotes.

Connect into the Tx or Rx unit’s IR In port.

»If hard-wired, IR is needed couple IR Emitter from control system to IR sensor

6. BEFORE connecting power supply to power outlet, screw-in the power supply to the Tx or Rx unit

7. AFTER all connections are made, plug-in power supply to power outlet

8. Power on source and display

CONFIGURE:

The default EDID handshake is 4Kx2K@60, 18G, HDR, 2ch audio (setting A) with 18G signal

bypass. Use the EDID rotary to choose desired handshake to provide to connected source and

the slide-switches to adjust 18G signal and hot plug detection handling.

Rack Mounting

In addition to mounting with the supplied L-Brackets, multiple KD-EX18G units may be mounted in

KD-SMS16 using the side mounting screws. KD-SMS16 is a mounting shelf for Key Digital units with

side mounting screw spacing of 2.912”, 2.582”, or 2.252”.

›Do NOT exceed 12 units as doing so will result in unit damage by overheating.

EDID Rotary

»EDID authentication is provided from the Tx unit to the connected input/source device.

»The EDID ﬁle (AKA “handshake”) is selected using the EDID rotary on the unit and provides a list

of compatible video and audio formats as well as digital data, informing the source device what it

should output.

»Most sources will comply with a new EDID ﬁle without a power-cycle, but each source may

behave differently.

»Adjustments may be necessary to help achieve desired video and audio formatting and may

speed up sync time.

»The default EDID setting is position 7, 4K@60fps, 18G, 2ch audio

Forced HPD Troubleshooting Tool:

In cases of many layers of connectivity or non-standard devices in-line, hot plug detection (HPD) may

be lost or drop below standard levels, leading to the video display not detecting a connected source and

resulting in no image.

›If set to ON, Hot Plug Detection (HPD) voltage is forced at the HDMI connection of the Rx unit.

The connected display will be fed a constant voltage to inform the device that a partner is always

connected and active.

›If set to OFF, Hot Plug Detection (HPD) voltage is passed-thru from connected source to the display
